SPEECH ACTIVITIES SPeeC Pa+ O'09Y Each summer the speech department ollers a theater tour to students and area residents. Three-hours credit may be obtained during this tour. This summer the speech department will take a 19-day, 5,000-mile trip to New York City, visiting important theatrical events in that city and in the central and eastern parts of the United States and Canada. Varsity Show This year the annual varsity produc- tion started as the curtain opened on a humorous satire ol college lile-strong- ly resembling Tech-in the l959 Var- sity Show Something for Nothing this year. The story, written, directed and produced by johnny Gilbert, Ama- rillo senior music major, took place at Kingston College, a supposedly typical eastern school. Three performances were given of the show this year, one a Saturday matinee. The show used parts of the Kingston College background to demonstrate what happens when a visitor comes to give the collegc's students something for nothing. Specihc examples to Tech were the boy-girl ration, the football team -which had never won a game in the history of the college and the board of directors. The first re- semblance came when Christopher Fairchild, portrayed magnificently by Ray Moore, unpacked his suitcase at the college where he was to lecture. While unpacking he mentioned the difiiculty incurred when visiting a dry country. The tradition-bound board ol direc- tors of Kingston College lclt the school should remain as it had been in their day. This produced a diliiculty for the students throughout the play. The visitor, however, manages to change personalities and solve the problems of the entire school by his visit. Actually he gives them Some- thing for Nothing. Whether the speech student is en- gaged in representing his college in competition or just entertaining the students on campus, he is contributing much to the college life at Tech. Speech Pathology Club Caught in the act-of helping Speech Pathology Club gathers around to watch Pat Young, club presi- dent, working on auditory training with Shelly Trull, youngest child ol a Littlefield family coming regularly to Tech Speech Clinic for speech training.
